Hotel Het Heilig Genot

As a business traveller, this was a great find. On entry, the place has an amazing and welcoming patio garden which leads to the reception / bar. The room was immaculately clean as was the gigantic bathroom. The owner, Sandy, made me and other guests most welcome and i'll definitely be staying here again next month.

The property was so beautiful. The room was spacious. We Loved it!

Our favourite hotel on our trip across Belgium. Staff exceedingly friendly and helpful. Gated parking. Beautiful garden. Very clean and well appointed.

This hotel was amazing, the owners really pleasant and helpful. Free tea and coffee as well as sweets and cake. Fantastic breakfast and super clean

This is an absolute gem of a place to stay! The owner is a wonderful, very hospitable woman who cares very much about making the hotel and your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The parking is convenient and secure. The hotel is clean and comfortable, with a charming breakfast room, a library, and coffee/drinks available onsite (which is nice for relaxing if you don't have anything with you). She even will drop you off at a local restaurant and they'll bring you home, meaning that you can enjoy one of the outstanding Belgian beers (or two...) and not have to worry about driving! This location is fantastic too. As someone who's been to Belgium several times, driving is exceptionally easy and when located here, you're a short drive away from the Abbey of Sint-Sixtus (the infamous Westvleteren Trappist beer, and a whole host of other sites including WWI locations, cities like Brugge and Gent, and other great things. It was a nice change of pace to be in a slightly more rural location and not have to worry about driving in a city - but with the convenience of the cities nearby. The bed was super comfortable and there were thoughtful touches like the grooming kits, body/hair gel, water, little candies, a handy guide in the desk, extra blanket, and good outlet access throughout the space. I appreciated having a magnified makeup mirror too! My only regret is that I had a very short stay - can't wait to come back!

A high quality, unique small property with safe private parking. Sadie knows the local restaurants, recommends and reserves accordingly. She sorted me out with superb friendly local a 10 minute walk away. Lifts were made available both ways if I wanted. Breakfast at the hotel is also fabulous. Thoroughly recommend!!

The hotel is very new and well thought out. Sandie is an excellent host and will help you out with everything. The breakfast was awesome. Such a peaceful and relaxing stay!

A bit hard to find as it is in the Belgian countryside and local roads are a bit vague. Once found I had a short wait as booking in is after 1700. All became clear when booked in. The place was secure, quiet and did what it did really well. Rooms were large and well thought out. They provide breakfast but dinner is elsewhere locally, you chose, they book and take you there and the location brings you back. Breakfast was good. Good enough to be looking for an excuse to go back when less hurried.

Great hotel and staff. Only thing not sure about was no bathroom door

Sandie has been absolutely wonderful! Every suggestion has been well thought out and been a wonderful experience. My husband and I came to town the week of Christmas for a visit to St. Sixtus for a chance at trying the Trappist beer. We were successful with the beer, but had no other plans while in the area. The hotel is updated, clean, quiet and cozy. Very relaxing. We have truly enjoyed the visit and would highly recommend this hotel!

Wonderful place, superb breakfast and the owners literally can't do enough. I marked 'comfort' down slightly as I didn't really like the iron bedstead, though the bed was really comfortable. Furthermore, I know that not all rooms are like this but mine didn't have a bathroom door and I'm never very happy with that. Superb country location and I really enjoyed the lovely garden and a wonderful Belgian beer (or two) using the 'honour bar' system.

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay in this small hotel ran by the incredibly friendly and helpful owners, Sandie and Ivan. Warm welcome, very comfortable room with a personal touch. Delicious extra amenities like candy, biscuits and good tea/coffee. Breakfast was outstanding: homemade eggs (at the spot, fried or omelette style), fresh juice, bread, ham, cheese, yogurth, croissants... We got to borrow bikes and cycled to "In de Vrede" (the abbey café where you can taste the world-famous, Westvleteren). The ride was only 20 minutes away through charming countryside roads. We hope to come back one day!

An unexpectedly lovely, contemporary hotel. Spacious, spotless and comfortable room and a brilliant hostess.

the hotel was super clean, breakfast was great, fried eggs or omelet and fresh squeezed orange juice. Sandie gave us info on local bier fest and drove us there and arranged for taxi at end of evening. Another day drove us to brewery and arranged for dinner and for waiter to bring us home. It was great, no worries about driving. We originally only booked 2 nights, but added another night. Staying with Sandie was like visiting with family. I would recommend this hotel and would love to stay there again.

Like usain bolt at running , the best there is.

The hotel owner, Sandie, met us when we arrived and took care of us during our two day stay. The hotel is new and well furnished. Breakfast was complete with eggs to order. Sandie helps with her complete knowledge of the Westvleteren Abbey brewery, four km away.

It was a great stay. The room was nice, spacious, clean and cosy. There was no door between the bathroom and bedroom. The owner was wonderful. She goes above and beyond to welcome us. She insisted taken us to the brewery, restaurant wherever. Just a wonderful person who wants to please her guests.

Excellent welcome. Super room. Very good breakfast.

We stayed for 1 night on our annual visit to the Menin gate ceremony in Ypres. No accommodation was available in Ypres, (10miles away) and we were glad it wasn't as everything was wonderful about the Het Heilig Genot, from Sandie personally greeting us on arrival, the lovely bedroom (we didn't like that there was no doorway to the bathroom, so no privacy and light polution at night) little touches like, bathrobes, complimentary bottles of water in the room fridge, complimentary cakes and sweets in the guests lounge, and the lovely breakfast. Sandie was a lovely lady and could not do enough for us. We are already planning another visit.

We arrived a day early after getting confused with our days and rang Sandie the Owner, she got in her car and drove straight over, giving us a warm welcome and managing to accommodate us. We were given a code to enter through a remote control gate into a very secure Private Car Park. The room she showed us to was beautifully decorated, spacious and everything was very clean and fresh. We were expecting a Continental Breakfast so had a nice surprise when we were given eggs and bacon. There was also the option of fresh fruit, yoghurts, cold meats, cheeses and fresh bread. Everything was very tasty.
